Just out! Our peer-reviewed critique of the Cass Review has been published by BMC Medical Research Methodology. Please read and share. We show that the Cass Review is fatally flawed and should not be the basis for policy or practice in transgender healthcare.

Categories used by the state to sort people into boxes are never neutral.
Some thoughts on the UK Supreme Court case ruling and the wider anti-trans campaign to narrow sex and gender categories in policy, data and law.

In light of the cis supremacy ruling in the supreme court I send love and solidarity to all trans people. I feel so useless, but know my rage. I’m so sorry at the cruelty shown towards you in the UK, within your families, on the streets, at work, in healthcare, by our government and the judiciary.
We urge anyone affected by this to reach out for support to: Switchboard LGBT MindLine Trans+ MindOut TransActual Mermaids
Stonewall shares the deep concern at the widespread implications for today’s ruling from the Supreme Court. It will be incredibly worrying for the trans community and all of us who support them. It’s important to be reminded the Court strongly and clearly re-affirmed the Equality Act protects all trans people against discrimination, based on Gender Reassignment, and will continue to do so. Once we read and fully digest the judgement, we will work with stakeholders across all sectors to provide as much clarity as possible. Stonewall will continue its work with the Government and parliamentarians to achieve equal rights under the law for LGBTQ+ people. Simon Blake OBE, Stonewall CEO
Stonewall responds to today’s Supreme Court ruling.
